So you’ve always wanted to get your pilot license, but your severe fear of flying has held you back. Not to mention you’re more interested in flight simulation games than actual aircraft flying. But all of that dreaming has done nothing to thwart your love of aircraft themed gadgets. And this one is an awesome example.

Mention Pico and chances are you’ll think of something small. Guess there isn’t any prizes up for grabs if you manage to figure out just what the Pico USB flash drive is like!

No exception, this little drive is the smallest we’ve ever seen. Barely bigger than the tip of your pinky, and less than 4mm thick, it’s positively small. The polished chrome finish is certainly shiny, but at 8 gigabytes, it’s redonkulously teeny! Store four full length ripped movies, five days worth of music, more than four-thousand 5 megapixel photos, or eighty-meters worth of shelved books. Sure, it’s so small you could easily lose it, so we’ve included a chain to help keep it around.

It measures 31.3mm x 12.4mm x 3.4mm and comes in a polished chrome finish, and being shock- and water-resistant, it makes me feel much more secure knowing that my data inside is safe. Now if only there is a way NOT to lose this $49.99 device…

Even if the summer season means we get a few hours of extra sunlight, us night owls are still left in the dark, season after season. While most of us geeks are extremely smart when it comes to mindless trivia and gaming, we lack the common sense it takes to survive doing the things we love. Case in point, we stay up all night, yet forget to buy a notebook with a backlit keyboard.

Of course we could buy an actual desk lamp, at least those who remember to pay their electricity bill can. But what if we just like chilling in the total darkness with just a faint light illuminating our keyboard? Not only does this USB Hub Notebook Light appeal to our fear of total darkness, but also provides us with four extra USB ports, clipped right to the top of our notebooks.
